QUINCY – City officials say a popular Marina Bay dance club likely won’t reopen this spring because the owner plans to build a 352-unit luxury apartment complex in its place.

The Ocean Club, the popular nightclub on Victory Road that previously went by the names WaterWorks and The Tent, typically starts hosting events in the spring, but no upcoming events are listed on the club’s website.

The property owner, Flagship Marina Bay, has permission from the city to construct a two-building apartment complex that would replace the club and complete the Marina Bay boardwalk. The project, named the Boardwalk Residences at Marina Bay, would also include retail space and a parking garage.

Brian Ferrara, manager of Flagship Marina Bay, couldn’t be reached Thursday to comment on the timeline of construction.

However, City Clerk Joseph Shea and Planning Director Dennis Harrington said they have heard that work may begin this construction season, meaning the Ocean Club wouldn’t reopen.

The club, which hosted some of the world’s top DJs and attracted people from the Boston area and surrounding states, shut down abruptly last year after a string of overdoses and arrests involving the drug known as molly.

The club operator, Frank DePasquale of Boston, couldn’t be reached for comment Thursday.

For years, Marina Bay’s bars and clubs – including the Ocean Club – have drawn the ire of neighbors who claim the venues are too noisy and create disturbances for people trying to sleep.

The city has designated Marina Bay a “noise-sensitive area,” which allows sound up to 60 decibels from 5 to 11 p.m. and 55 decibels from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. In other parts of the city, noise can’t exceed 65 decibels after 5 p.m.

Last May, the city’s planning board approved Flagship’s plans for the Boardwalk Residences. At the time, the apartments were expected to command the highest rents in Quincy – an average of $2.50 per square foot, compared with the $2.09 average.

Flagship originally proposed a 465-unit project, but the plan was scaled down after discussions with city officials. Also at the behest of the city, Flagship agreed to enhance shuttle service in Marina Bay to reduce peak-hour traffic volumes.
